The Synoptic Gospels now move to Jesus’ Last Supper—including the prophetic preparations, shocking announcements, and introduction of the sacrament. During the meal He tries to prepare His disciples for His death and their unmet expectations. Even though Jesus knows what lies ahead, when the time comes to actually experience the excruciating suffering required to atoning for the sins of het world, it is harder than He expected. Nevertheless, Jesus endures Gethsemane and nobly moves forward to His arrest, submitting to His Father’s will. The chapter ends with Peter also learning that living through Satan’s temptations are harder than he expected.
